Plan your visit

Stay by the sand or walk north and south

Anmok's café-lined beachfront is a useful starting point for three different coastal walks. Stay beside the sand, head north into the pines towards Songjeong, or go south to the river mouth and Solbaram Bridge.

  • A short visit to the open shore

    Walk the Anmok beachfront

    Start at Anmok Beach, 20-1 Changhae-ro 14beon-gil 안목해변 · 창해로14번길 20-1

    From Anmok Coffee Street bus stop, continue to the beach entrance and walk along the sea-facing waterfront. The cafés behind the shore are easy landmarks for finding your way back after time on the sand or watching the waves.

  • A longer walk through coastal pines

    Follow the pine path towards Songjeong

    Start at Northern end of Anmok Beach, towards Songjeong Beach in Gangneung 안목해변 북쪽 · 송정해변 방향 해송길

    Walk north from Anmok into the coastal pine path towards Gangneung’s Songjeong Beach. This is the wooded stretch of the coast, with openings back to the sand and sea. Use Songjeong Beach as your turn-around point and return through the pines to Anmok for the bus.
